We've agreed on the first name Lily.
We've like it for years and goes really nicely with our surname, now just trying to pick a middle name.

Top favourites are:
Lily Jasmine
Lily Amber

Lily Jasmine 🥰

I voted Jasmine. I do really like Jasmine anyways but Lily Jasmine sounds very pretty.

I think LJ is a nice nn too.

Much prefer it over Lily Amber.

I voted for Lily Amber - I like that Amber is a nature name but not another flower.

I'd also choose Amber to avoid having two flower names. The two floral names together make it sound like a paint colour.

I love the name Jasmine, would love to have it as a first name but don't like it being shortened to Jas which it probably would do as she got older so thought it might be nice as a middle name instead

Amber. I think two flower names is a bit much.

I voted for Lily Amber, but they are both beautiful names!

Edited

I thought I'd Google it to see what came up, no paint colours but a perfume which I guess is similar with it being 2 flower names. So I'm thinking Amber might be the better choice

Lily Jasmine is my pick.

Amber is also great.

Others ..
Lily Jessica
Lily Alanna

I'd choose Amber because it's a nature name but not as obviously as Jasmine. I do love the name Jasmine though.
